Subject: RFP: packer -- create vm images for multiple platforms from a single source configuration

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : packer
  Version         : 0.5.2

  Description     : create vm images for multiple platforms from a single source configuration

Packer is a lightweight tool for create machine images for multiple platforms 
in parallel.
Packer comes out of the box with support for creating AMIs (EC2), KVM, 
Openstack and VirtualBox images. Support for more platforms can be added via 
plugins.
The images that Packer creates can easily be turned into Vagrant boxes.

Extra notes:

I had a look about the way packer works for Virtualbox and contrary to 
existing chroot-based tools, packer uses the debian-installer by preseeding 
a local http server. 

I am interested in packaging packer ! With the aim one day of creating
official debian images for VirtualBox, though I would wait before to know if
someone is willing to upload the resulting work in the archive.

An RFP bugreport means that you want someone else to package this. If
_you_ want to work on it, you should create an ITP.

In general, we welcome any contributions (and will sponsor uploads when
the package fulfills our quality criteria), as long as they are
maintained as part of pkg-go. Feel free to reach out to us at
#debian-golang if you have questions.

Have you made any progress with the package? If so I would happily help
reviewing the package, too. If not I'm thinking about packaging packer
myself.

Cheers,

Go ahead if you want to start with the packaging work. I have seen that 
the required go compiler for Pacaker is .12, and that's only in testing 
IIRC. Maybe I join your packaging efforts later on :)

Originally I planned using packer for creating Testing images for
Vagrant, but I found https://github.com/tiwilliam/vagrant-debian which
is much easier to use thus I don't plan packaging packer for now. :-(
Sorry for the noise.

Cheers,
Balint

Hi,

I am going to package this. I haven't worked on Go packages before, but wanted to get
into it. I'm an experienced Debian packager, and I'm going to join pkg-go.

Thanks,
DS
